The North Royalton Board of Education held a second monthly meeting on Thursday, June 26
The Board approved the final appropriation adjustments for 2024-25 and the temporary appropriations for 2025-26. The General Fund showed $60,192,713.33 and the grand total for all funds for 2024-25 showed $74,546,306.10. The General Fund showed $63,060,231.00 and the grand total for all funds for 2025-26 showed at $77,379,175.32. School Treasurer, Biagio Sidoti noted that “we do this on an annual basis and we adjust our expenditures with our appropriations and set a temporary appropriation, starting July 1, up until September when we can finally approve a permanent appropriation. So this allows us to do a spending plan for the first three months of our new fiscal year.”
North Royalton School Superintendent, Mike Laub, noted “typically this is the meeting where it is the close of the year for the Treasurer’s office, but we also have some late in the game retirements and resignations, so we appreciate the Board allowing us to put a couple of these on here.” Both of the employees are replacing those who have retired or resigned.
