Superintendent cites strong voter support for district budget, notes board election results
Summary
Superintendent reported voters approved district budgets and related propositions with strong margins and congratulated re-elected trustees; discussion of a potential board appointment was reported but no formal vote recorded.
Superintendent reported that voters approved the district budget and several related propositions by wide margins and congratulated recently re-elected board members during the June meeting.
The superintendent told the board the district budget passed with 71% approval; he said bus and technology propositions each received about 79% and 81% approval respectively, and the furniture/reserve proposition received 81%. He also said a public library budget passed with 62% approval. “Always been impressed with this community's support of this public school system,” he said.
The superintendent congratulated Kevin Kissel and Rob Curtis on reelection. He also said that Anne Bowles received seven times the number of write-in votes of the next-highest write-in candidate and that he and “Dr. Jessica” planned to meet with Bowles the following morning to discuss whether she would join the board; no appointment vote was recorded in the public transcript. “Doctor Jessica and I are meeting with Miss Bowles tomorrow morning, to talk about her joining the board,” he said.
The superintendent’s report included these items as part of a broader end-of-year summary presented to the board; no separate formal action on the election results or the potential appointment was recorded in the meeting minutes excerpted in the transcript.
