Children's Mercy contract to provide athletic training at Lee's Summit High School for one year
Summary
District presented a one-year contract with Children's Mercy to provide athletic training services at Lee's Summit High School after the district could not staff a certified teacher associate for that position; North and West high schools continue to use teacher associates with stipends.
The district presented a one-year contract with Children's Mercy to provide athletic training services at Lee's Summit High School for the coming school year.
Dr. Lindquist said the contract maintains current service levels at middle and high schools by contracting with Children's Mercy specifically for Lee's Summit High School. When board members asked who provides athletic training at Lee's Summit North and Lee's Summit West, staff said those schools employ teacher associates who receive stipends to provide athletic training functions. Dr. Lindquist said a teacher associate previously filled the Lee's Summit High School role but the district could not hire a certified teacher associate this year, prompting the Children's Mercy contract; the district may revert to an in-house teacher associate if one is hired in the future.
