Treasurer: forecast shortened to three years; board approves athletics appropriations and discusses a purchase-order lapse

Megan, the district treasurer, told the board the required forecast period has been shortened from five years to three years under recent state legislative changes and that she had begun work on the new forecast. She said directors have already started preparing schedules tied to the October 15 reporting cycle.

The board approved appropriation changes that move fundraising proceeds into athletics accounts so student teams can spend money they raised; the treasurer noted the girls— softball appropriation was a sizeable amount intended to support the team's travel and activities. The board voted to approve those appropriation changes without further discussion.

Separately, Megan described an employee error in which a service was procured before a purchase order was in place. The matter led to a supervisor-led conversation with the employee about proper protocols. Board members asked what disciplinary steps would follow if the behavior repeated; the treasurer and other staff said any additional action would be determined by the employee's supervisor and human resources and could include further discipline.

Discussion vs. decision: The appropriation changes were approved by roll call vote. The purchase-order incident prompted a personnel/process discussion but no formal board disciplinary action.

Ending: The treasurer said she will be out of the district next week but remains reachable; Justin was named as backup for approvals while she is away.
