The Russell County Public Schools Board approved a series of routine business items in the meeting’s action portion, including finalizing the agenda, approving minutes and accepting personnel actions.

Motions and outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript include:

- Finalize agenda: A board member moved to approve and finalize the agenda; the board voted “Aye” and the motion passed.

- Approve minutes of Sept. 2, 2025: A motion to approve the minutes was made and seconded; the board voted “Aye” and the minutes were approved.

- Accept resignations/retirements: The board voted to approve resignations and retirements; the motion was moved and seconded and carried with an “Aye” vote.

- Approve new hires and transfers: The board approved a list of new hires and transfers; motion moved and seconded and carried with an “Aye” vote.

- Approve auction items and set auction date: The board approved the auction items and set the auction for October 11 at 9:00 a.m. at the bus garage.

- Pay bills and accounts: A motion to pay bills and accounts was moved, seconded and approved with an “Aye” vote.

Where motions were made and seconded in the transcript the specific movers or seconders were identified in some cases (for example, a board member identified as Mr. Parsons moved the agenda at one point and Mr. Ball moved the minutes), but many of the roll calls were recorded simply as “All in favor? Aye.” The transcript shows no recorded roll‑call tallies; outcomes are reported in the minutes as approved.

Why it matters: These routine approvals authorize personnel actions and set logistics for a public auction; they also confirm the board’s formal record of the previous meeting.

Ending: The board moved on to recognitions and other non‑action items after completing the routine business votes.
