Upper Darby school board approves agenda, adopts personnel and facilities reports; no public speakers

The Upper Darby School District Board of School Directors approved the meeting agenda and adopted both the personnel and facilities reports during a regularly scheduled voting meeting. Board members noted the agenda had been posted to BoardDocs at least 24 hours before the meeting.

Board members moved and seconded the personnel report, which had been made available to the public. Following the motion to adopt, several board members offered remarks of thanks to district leadership, specifically referencing Dr. McGary and Mr. Marshall and saying they look forward to working with administration over the next five years. Those comments were made by board members speaking during the personnel-report item (several speakers are unnamed in the transcript). One member said, "I just want to... thank Dr. McGary and Mr. Marshall," and another added they were "grateful to know that you guys will be here" to support students' needs.

The board then moved to adopt the facilities report; that motion was seconded and carried. The chair called the roll earlier in the meeting and noted Director Deborah Williams would be late; several members, including Dr. Heg, indicated they were present (Dr. Heg participated virtually).

The chair opened the public-comment portion of the agenda and reminded potential speakers of the three-minute time limit and the district's Policy 9003 sign-in rule. The chair stated no Upper Darby residents were signed in for general comments. District staff clarified the sign-in process and said members of the public could also raise items at the committee meeting or agenda-setting meeting if appropriate.

With no further business, a motion to adjourn was moved and seconded and the meeting was adjourned. The transcript does not record vote tallies or the names of the individual members who made or seconded the motions.
