The resolutions advance a bond-funded project and authorize the school to place bond proceeds into its budget and spend them, although the minutes do not state the bond amount, project scope, tax impact, or repayment details. No public comments were made at either hearing. The board also approved a Louisville Zoo field trip for social studies classes and a donation. The executive session concerned personnel matters, but no action was taken.
