Discussion:
Spoke with Perry Law Firm to tailor all policies so they are updated and ready to go. Negotiations are expected to begin in the next few months. Will need to meet with the committee in the next couple of weeks. The roofs on the HS and NS gyms, if approved, need to be addressed this week. The track resurfacing will happen at the end of October. October 27th will be the start date. BVH, action item to approve a more in-depth study on building conditions. Allyson Huettner has been hired as additional nursing staff. Will be working with ESU since both ladies are LPN's and not RN's. Bus SOP's have been written, and requesting feedback on these. Working on redoing the entire bus driver handbooks. Looking at doing a study on the code of conduct. Football update from coaching staff. We did put in for a competitive waiver. Will be sending out an all activities survey in the next few weeks to gather input on participation. Wrestling update, we have been working on gathering information on three options for the wrestling kids. Do nothing, hire two additional coaches or create a schedule where conditioning/moves. Utilize the upper deck and the south school gym as practice facilities. Permanent structure is the ultimate solution, but that is not a reality at this point.
Coaches meeting on the 17th to get a feel on how to move forward as a district. |
