The Fort Atkinson School Board on Aug. 21 approved the consent agenda, which included a personnel appointment, authorization for foreign travel, several donations and payment of district bills. The board approved the appointment of Courtney Check to a 1.0 FTE limited-term art teacher position at Rockwell and Purdy Elementary, effective with the 2025–26 school year and contingent upon release from any current contract and satisfactory results of pre-placement health screening and background checks. The board also approved a district-sponsored foreign travel request to Costa Rica in summer 2027. The consent packet listed several donations: a 2023 Mercury Grand Marquis LS donated by Shirley Coutts with an approximate value of $4,630 for the high-school automotive class; a donation from Charles and Angela Mitchell described as a 2005 Ford F-150 with an approximate value of $500; and a $700 donation from the Liberty Through Literacy Foundation for summer reading materials. One smaller historical-museum-related donation listed in the packet had an unclear amount in the transcript and is reported here as not specified. The board moved and seconded the consent agenda and approved it by roll-call vote; members present voted in favor. District staff noted that documentation for all consent items was provided to board members in advance and that any consent item could be pulled for separate consideration if requested.
