Technology: staff reported updated fiber and server equipment installations at several locations and that the district is preparing about 4,300 Chromebooks for distribution in the new school year; staff member Mister Grimes was noted as assisting with that work.

Transportation: the district is acquiring two low-mileage white buses from Curlin Bus Sales that were turned in with about 25,000 miles; district staff said the buses were available at roughly half the price of new vehicles. The district plans to retire one older high-mileage bus and also expects to receive four new yellow buses by summer’s end as part of normal replacement cycles.

Maintenance and construction: summer projects underway include renovations at Castle, Oakdale, Booneville High and Weck schools; replacements at Sharon; paving and resurfacing at seven locations; roof repairs at Castle North, Booneville, and Tecumseh High; HVAC work at several sites; plumbing at Tecumseh; furniture moves, painting and fence repairs. Staff reported new construction at the maintenance facility, John H. Castle and the WPCC, plus site preparation for a pavilion project. District staff said Centerpoint has received prints and will handle pole placement and power stub work; staff expect the pavilion building to be constructed but could not guarantee electrical service will be active by the start of school.

E-rate: staff reported that current E-rate funding and the E-rate discount for broadband connections remain available to the district; the program had been discussed nationally as potentially subject to reductions but, as of the board update, funding and discounts for equipment and connectivity were still in place.

Board members asked questions about timelines for specific projects (for example, a parking/entryway repair and pavilion power availability). Staff said repairs and projects are on district lists and are expected to be completed before the next school year or by the end of summer where feasible, but specific completion dates were not provided for all items.

No formal action was required for the informational update.","Warrick County School Corp reported multiple summer projects including Chromebook distribution prep, acquisition of two low-mileage white buses, HVAC and roof repairs at several schools, paving at seven locations, and pavilion construction with Centerpoint; e-rate funding for fiber and discounts remains available, the district said.",{"_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":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6222973,"Warrick County School Corp board approves multiple hires, transfers and resignations",97,733000,830000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3577602-6bb940b1e7bb76469b7b6536a1e6f32f&start=733&end=830","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3577602-6bb940b1e7bb76469b7b6536a1e6f32f/thumbnail_733000.jpg","/articles/6222973/Indiana/Warrick-County-School-Corp-board-approves-multiple-hires-transfers-and-resignations","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6222973-6ce535abbb0c6805bdf71afe11e7b4b0/orig.mp4?Expires=1773576010&Signature=BVym967NuHeOM0EU6bHJOLxEFvRhGT~3CqGjPuRcgwn4w-89gT2qFLI4BrvZoSpeZ62Ch2x8lk-OyzJYzmz19DiJLkRTuEKhmwYR4yCQqPyMoxzBvBfVfCKCd7NDvMdohF-Z7T7E-6tKRzMI0yknHDl993TNAJKAudkHbB1UmWyMSD7SPqRO2EQp8Na0wb41SmGr2AQ6hFdg3nqQIiz2BQhhch7ySXtzL0f5-eLGCf1oWWlmE8DZ9JB8WZPwcfXUCm9rNLxRLo~r7eQzYANQcf1mIjuRM37aBNJos00b~~-zuoPAcgkyL8-1~9nyDMyqvpJKr9XkzSJOWc6wsLYiJw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Warrick County School Corp’s school board on May 12 approved multiple personnel recommendations presented by the human resources office.

The committee also prioritized a full week for fall break and a full spring break; the proposed calendar reflected those preferences.

Board members voiced appreciation for the committee’s work. The motion to approve the calendar was made, seconded and carried during the meeting; no roll-call vote details were recorded in the meeting transcript excerpt.

The approved calendar will appear in district communications and the board packet; no further amendments to the 2026–27 calendar were discussed in the public meeting record. The board did not specify any exceptions for individual schools or conditional provisions tied to future staffing or funding decisions during the approval.

District families will receive the calendar through standard district channels when finalized in the board materials.","The school board approved the 2026–27 school calendar after a committee including teachers, administrators and parents prioritized two-week Christmas break and finishing the school year by Memorial Day.",{"_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":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6222980,"Warrick County School Corp approves reduced asbestos abatement change order for CHS choir room",58,414000,472000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3577602-6bb940b1e7bb76469b7b6536a1e6f32f&start=414&end=472","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3577602-6bb940b1e7bb76469b7b6536a1e6f32f/thumbnail_414000.jpg","/articles/6222980/Indiana/Warrick-County-School-Corp-approves-reduced-asbestos-abatement-change-order-for-CHS-choir-room","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6222980-e2beb817733f100aa8fa9eeab5760fb2/orig.mp4?Expires=1773576010&Signature=hHNC8HfsJLafrhwPceqc~k9diO2zNNkMn07IXSBpGkr3j4fiAjCZ9OCKw7yw668oss7W3A9DwzWSrSgKVqVfjb5ihvr9jfJdTtqWptiFEk9FAPzn4z8aidDyAlvBvUbKhHBjEns5UBqyHwywUnqBRuZ2wKjLIcUrILVIaI0pjbj0oqG4ylGjfAE0Jf~SY0qH5CdXCp~zlAFjVhkK2b4g8HSeHey-fAMN-1cTNV9HQCpcxpuslUFDgtf1TNE6L8Kd0mqsfT4mJrtupBJszyFQeWsfWcb4K186jbSEmh~IdJeAgqMjqmYVtVj7ek6XHOPUgaOKAe6xrPREAxj1VIIhUg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Warrick County School Corp’s school board on May 12 approved a change order to remove and abate asbestos-containing floor tile and associated mastic in Castle High School’s Choir Room (Room 108).

Board members were told the general contractor, Dike Brothers, submitted Change Order No. 1 to cover asbestos abatement work performed by subcontractor Elite Environmental. The subcontractor will remove 7,381 square feet of asbestos-containing floor tile and 350 linear feet of associated material. The initial proposal totaled $35,203; after applying asbestos contingency funds already included in the project bid, the net change order was presented as $17,179.

The motion to approve the change order was made and seconded; the board voted to carry the motion. The board packet included the change order request and the recommendation to approve it as submitted.

The approval covers only the work described in the change order as presented to the board; no additional project authorizations were recorded during the vote. The board did not identify additional remedial tasks or costs during the discussion recorded in the packet notes.

Board members and staff indicated the contractor and subcontractor arrangements were in place and that existing project contingency dollars were used to reduce the requested amount. No timeline for completion of the abatement was included in the materials presented to the board.

The item will be reflected in the project accounting and the construction schedule for the Castle High School building project.","The school board approved Change Order No. 1 to remove asbestos flooring and mastic in Castle High School (CHS) Choir Room 108; subcontractor Elite Environmental will perform the work and the net change order is $17,179 after contingency deductions.","actionData","errors"]
