The Brighton Central School District Board of Education approved several routine governance and operational items at its May 28 meeting.
On a voice vote the board approved the 2024–25 Board of Education meeting calendar after an adjustment tied to the timing of a budget hearing. The board also approved cooperative bids coordinated through BOCES for natural gas, produce, frozen desserts and ice cream, milk and juice, beverage supply and fresh bread to leverage cooperative purchasing power.
Administrators presented three policies on second read to align district rules with updated laws and best practices: policy 5,674 (non‑instructional business data networks and security access), policy 6,121 (personnel harassment in the workplace), and policy 5,677 (non‑instructional business privacy and security for student and staff data). The board voted to approve the three policies together on second read.
The consent agenda passed and included routine extracurricular activity notices and acknowledgments of gifts: $600 to the Dennis Miller scholarship fund, $250 for a ninth‑grade To Kill a Mockingbird event honorarium, and $2,000 for honorariums supporting assemblies featuring BHS alumni speakers. Motions were moved and seconded by board members (recorded movers include Karen, Eleanor, Susan, Esther) and carried by voice vote; the public record shows 'Aye' for each of these approvals but does not record a numerical tally.
No contested votes were recorded in the public meeting.
