The Rolling Hills Local school board on an otherwise routine agenda approved several personnel appointments and standard consent items, and voted to enter an executive session to consider the purchase or sale of property.
The board approved the appointments of Devin Norman and Kelly Zender as the boys spring and spring weight-room coordinators after a motion and second; the vote recorded four yes votes and one abstention. The superintendent described those roles as ensuring male and female staff supervise the weight room each weekday afternoon so students can work out under supervision.
The board also approved the appointment of Jesse Wells as a volunteer football coach for the 2627 school year. The motion passed with a 4–1 tally: four members voted yes and one voted no. No further conditions on the volunteer appointment were recorded in the meeting minutes.
On consent items the board approved routine financial paperwork, including minutes from the Feb. 19 meeting and the February financial report. The treasurer said there had been no substantive changes to construction accounts and noted the district was tapping interest earned on borrowed funds to cover certain items.
The board accepted donations from WB Green Insurance and Cambridge Packaging and approved a resolution authorizing an agreement with Stan and Associates Inc. for HVAC work on the preschool 12 project; the superintendent said the district engaged attorneys to help complete that HVAC work.
Finally, the board voted to enter executive session to consider the purchase or sale of property; the motion passed by roll call with the members present voting to go into executive session. No final action on property was recorded in open session.
