\"I would recommend to the board, Andrea Gregory, for the high school counselor,\" a district staff speaker said, noting certification was pending and that staff were working with the Professional Teaching Standards Board to expedite the process. A motion to approve was made and seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.

District staff said if certification is completed soon, monies exist in the district to expand the hire under a grant for the remainder of the school year rather than using general fund dollars. The board noted the August start date mentioned in the packet is for the next school year and not an immediate start date.

Board members asked about the advertisement period and applicant pool; staff said the position was advertised for about 15 days and produced one applicant for the certified, non-teaching category. The board approved the recommendation with the condition of pending certification.","The Weston County School Board approved the certified recommendation to hire Andrea Gregory as the high school guidance counselor, subject to pending certification and noting a potential grant-funded start to serve student needs this school year.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6607501,"Board discusses pool repairs and local value of swim program amid maintenance costs",238,1369000,1607000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5&start=1369&end=1607","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5/thumbnail_1369000.jpg","/articles/6607501/Weston-County/Wyoming/Board-discusses-pool-repairs-and-local-value-of-swim-program-amid-maintenance-costs","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6607501-275658ad54de8cf709c228e23f5f3337/orig.mp4?Expires=1771141523&Signature=Gvw5uYxm6CELF6rEemBBWjhsZ0Rsb4phv464fn07XnFnYq~xPLlAafOVHHrz6mxY-PL6Li3LngILaMxh7y1WEohRE8tn6LB~FQp3Ek09pfvtxSBokBmdHNgDm2JsUML-1wfr9SyiG8vjx6NXJ0Vom~mu4dHCQXpVVf9QbpebdLemfGJhSPHQyyk5BXge3rHd0dSE6Hw~fUeTdglhCEI520oncdZ4pcSDOz9Rc85SM9LO83P5Vx9wrlbs0Aw~yfgNuCpHoW1hnW9B89~eN6dmbwhxUeljq7CsRdAbQrHAaOMSnY7hTEUUYaCtvvYJlBPeBsm9k3DTkko6XvHjLZRKwQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Board members discussed the condition and community value of the district pool and estimated maintenance costs as facilities staff prepare to present options to the board.

Mister Lacroix told the board the school will meet with facilities staff and outlined estimated general fund support of $150,000 to $200,000 to offset the preventative maintenance contract, while seeking major maintenance funding to cover larger repairs. \"That's really about that ongoing, preventative maintenance contract. Right now, Angie is anticipating, hundred and 50 to $200,000 of general fund money to offset that,\" he said.

Board members and speakers emphasized the pool’s role in life-safety training and community programming. Board Chair recounted an anecdote from Representative JD Williams about a local woman who survived a drowning incident because she had learned to swim at the district pool. The chair said the district has invested in major systems already: boilers and the filter system have been replaced, and that the pool lining cannot be piecemealed — it must be replaced in full.

Board members discussed seeking input from local businesses and community groups; the district sent out 5–7 pool packets to businesses and planned to follow up. No formal action was taken; facilities will present options after the upcoming meeting with the facilities department.","Board members discussed the district pool's maintenance history, recent investments and the need for a significant lining replacement; trustees and community members emphasized the pool's life-safety and instructional value while staff outlined potential general fund costs.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6607506,"Board hears concern that career and technical education funding could shift to charter model",184,1787000,1971000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5&start=1787&end=1971","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5/thumbnail_1787000.jpg","/articles/6607506/Weston-County/Wyoming/Board-hears-concern-that-career-and-technical-education-funding-could-shift-to-charter-model","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6607506-902da5c8f0c8235d98d37fe418f98d48/orig.mp4?Expires=1771141523&Signature=ckrwYRrlPhg9LacRnkfYLeih97fWs14Yu69rIEuDQbF0DaGr7XX2prOrOuMcRbsWVQBlt-ZOkSItUssj0KEh4QS-1pIVdX5FcOgS20KkOuZ7Ya94ELeaIJxQ2Q3Cwl5kxfDfa816RK7THBsZ~~~LgmlJaggTLFkxVSGBgCJurRfii5MwIrff9ja8iM30ODYA-J0iWSkHHSWNzYl4PmuujlSvBjwCFXLDoAZJTZ39c6D4bmrLlBNE7~3JgqlNcKj8bXLay7~DU2yEezCQmad8q2OU9HgdmVuJ7gcbua1-MIQyDLNr1FqgbaM1d9TUGWgsXALuOcn1g~iwE-QEvQ39PQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Board members discussed a report that a state senator suggested CTE funding might be moved into a charter school framework, a comment board members said raised concerns about how the programs would be funded and delivered.

Board Chair relayed comments made by Senator Driscoll during a recent meeting with lawmakers: \"CTE... may have to be moved into a charter school situation because we won't have the money to do it,\" the chair said in recounting the senator’s remarks. The chair said the comment was “enigmatic” and that no follow-up details were provided during the lawmakers’ visit.

Board members expressed worry about the practical effect of such a change on the district. One board member said moving CTE to a charter model without clear funding mechanisms would risk program loss and could prompt students to leave the district for schools that continue to offer CTE. \"We are gonna have to be very creative in this district,\" a board member said, urging staff to collect examples and partnerships to sustain programs.

The chair offered to contact Senator Driscoll for clarification. Board members also noted a separate remark they heard — that some lawmakers are considering forced consolidations — and said consolidation proposals could provoke strong local resistance. The board did not take formal action on the matter; the discussion was for information and future follow-up.","Board members discussed comments from state lawmakers suggesting Career and Technical Education (CTE) funding could be shifted toward charter schools and that consolidations may be considered; board members asked for clarification from the senator who made the remarks.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6607510,"Weston County board approves submission of consolidated federal grant despite unknown Perkins allocation",199,474000,673000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5&start=474&end=673","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2952732-24a32eb55ff4d2b3e501419911c198f5/thumbnail_474000.jpg","/articles/6607510/Weston-County/Wyoming/Weston-County-board-approves-submission-of-consolidated-federal-grant-despite-unknown-Perkins-allocation","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6607510-dcaa31688d8541d3ae1d1242b642bb5b/orig.mp4?Expires=1771141523&Signature=ZsLHub8x5f1twFqPKrC1PBK7OMnQff7DYLUQRIK59ohad4NjtxkCczfFejKkYl1QxqpXuEv3Im4S1eL3QUzxiNqZu27M3cCn8D57ZpdHi~zFRFnF4Pisvi8cg2brzmRysB-DxTr1M2k38KN5WjsYnbnBk4IkV4qBtD8KwkSsiariOOmEYQzkylPOl5cBVwBCL-KeFdac4ZrGispuTJb9y5Aakz9chUgJFz2RqkVUHVwze85pya7OYr2Af3F9p8ZP1kG01mDoLcn7swUhtdZz0FtprWnhm564ON5jMFfrzlt~naMznwDteu3fyhNPhdd9kzv4~heay5i0BWBQBlmPpA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Weston County School Board voted to approve completing and submitting the district’s consolidated federal grant application, the board decided after staff said final allocation amounts were not yet available.

Board Chair called for approval of the proposal to complete and submit the consolidated grant application covering Title I, Title II, Title III, IDEA and Perkins funding. “Move to approve.” A second followed, and the motion carried after a voice vote in which members answered “aye.”

District staff warned the board the submission would proceed without firm dollar figures. “They typically send district allocations at that time. And they said that they don't have our allocation amount from whoever disperses the money from the federal government,” said Mister Hoffman, a district staff member. “So they don't know what that number is going to be.”

Hoffman told the board the Wyoming Department of Education meeting with Perkins representatives usually provides allocation figures. He said staff can prepare the application and enter personnel and training information but cannot finalize the budget until the state receives the federal distribution numbers. The application window opens April 15 and is due May 30, he said.

Board members did not raise further objections to moving ahead with the application despite the uncertainty. The discussion emphasized the practical need to meet the application deadline while remaining prepared to update budget figures when allocations arrive.

The board’s action authorizes district staff to complete and submit the consolidated grant application and to finalize budget details later if and when allocation amounts are provided.","The Weston County School Board voted to approve completing and submitting its consolidated federal grant application, though district staff said final dollar allocations — including Perkins funding — had not yet been released by state or federal distributors.","actionData","errors"]
