Votes at a glance: Edmond Public Schools board approves personnel moves, contracts, cameras purchase, pool agreement and IT systems
The Edmond Public Schools Board of Education approved a broad consent agenda and took multiple formal votes on personnel recommendations, vendor contracts, facility projects and technology purchases during the meeting. Major actions included:

- Personnel and hiring: The board approved certified personnel actions (Schedule A), support personnel actions (Schedule B), continuing support personnel assurances (Schedule C), and professional non-bargaining assurances (Schedule D). It approved recommendations for principal and administrative hires including a director of secondary education (Dandy Peeler), three elementary assistant principals (Krista Setzer, Joanna Brown, Katie Joyner), four middle school administrative interns, and multiple athletic coaching appointments (including head coaches for swim teams at district high schools). All personnel items were approved by roll call.

- Interlocal pool agreement: The board approved a three-year interlocal cooperative agreement with the City of Edmond relating to operation of the competitive pool at Mitch Park; the memorandum presented a 50/50 sharing of defined pool operating shortfall and capped district contributions at $175,000 over the three-year period (staff noted the district paid $135,000 the previous year). Board members thanked City and YMCA representatives for cooperation during negotiations.

- IT and software approvals: The board approved moving several software services and renewals: Infinite Campus workflow (hall pass/attendance features), Incident IQ (device and maintenance management), and case/license renewals for imaging and patch management (part of a phased approach). The board approved a purchase related to Incident IQ and noted projected savings by consolidating overlapping services.

- Security cameras: The board approved purchase of new cameras from Arrow IT Solutions and asked administration to draft or review a policy on camera use and employee access. Staff said principals determine building camera access and the district would examine policy and disciplinary processes for misuse of video.

- Construction and facilities contracts: The board approved site work bidding for Middle School No. 7 (see separate article), approved building colors for a new elementary school, reconfirmed subcontractors for an elementary under Construction Manager L5 Construction LLC, and awarded LED lighting/ceiling work at Russell Daugherty Elementary. The board also approved renovation and maintenance contracts (HVAC filters, fire alarm maintenance and boiler service) as part of consent items.

- Other consent items: The board approved ongoing partnerships and career/technical program agreements (Francis Tuttle partnership), and several vendor renewals for site and district services.

Votes were recorded by roll call for each motion. Where the transcript provided specific tallies, the record shows unanimous or near-unanimous board approval for the listed consent and action items; a few items were pulled for discussion and separate votes.
