During the superintendent report, district leadership briefed the board on planned facility work, a new county grant, construction timelines and community fundraising. The superintendent (identified generically in the meeting record) said the district obtained basic pricing to replace windows at Wilson, James and Eisenhower elementary schools and plans to propose that project for the next summer; he framed the replacement as addressing a large need for north-side buildings. "We've got some basic pricing on it, probably for a proposal to do Wilson, James, and, Eisenhower for this next summer," the superintendent said. The superintendent also reported the district received a Wapello County opioid grant totaling $300,000 over five years and credited staff support for securing the award. "We got a Wapello County grant. I give a lot of credit to Mike Steemsville for getting this grant. It's a grant, and it's opioid grant to it's a total of $300,000 over 5 years," the superintendent said. On construction, staff said they are targeting Sept. 22 for the high school's first event in the new gym, a volleyball invitational, and reported road and sidewalk work at Ferry and Mary and Fourth Street was nearing completion. The superintendent also updated the board on the baseball/softball committee's initial meeting and fundraising plans for a potential athletic complex, and mentioned a community fundraiser with Jersey Mike's to raise donations for the district. The superintendent reminded the public that board election filing papers are due Sept. 18 at 5 p.m. and noted a Sept. 20 "Vets for Pets" fundraiser will support the Heartland Humane Society.
