It also approved a contract with Developmental Therapy Center, Inc. for speech-language services; no contract amount was stated. The superintendent reported that a prior town auction had sold district vehicles and leftover windows for $4,800 in total proceeds.

The board approved, 4–0, an amendment to the Comprehensive Educational Facilities Plan adding a Wayne High School agriculture facility and a Lavalette-area school project, making them eligible for potential School Building Authority funding.
