Board reviews contract items including technology staff agreements and three‑year athletic trainer contract with Fisher‑Titus
Summary
The board considered multiple contract items: continued agreements with Noweka technology staff, a Milaca member service agreement, and a three‑year athletic training services agreement with Fisher‑Titus Medical Center that carries a substantial price increase.
During the meeting the board reviewed several service agreements and contracts for the coming school year and voted to approve those items under agenda 7.01–7.05.
District leaders noted three long‑standing Noweka‑paid technology staff (Chris Adams, Kim Navarro and Kyle Shine) who provide on‑site support. A Milaca member service agreement for district services was also placed before the board with no extended discussion in the transcript.
The board discussed a three‑year agreement with Fisher‑Titus Medical Center for athletic training services. Board members and staff said they were pleased with the trainer’s value but noted a substantial cost increase in the vendor’s proposal. As one administrator explained, the increase was “close to 250%,” and the negotiated price point recorded in the meeting was $24,000 for the coming year and $30,000 for the second and third years of the contract. The administration described a negotiation process with Fisher‑Titus that involved meeting to discuss the provider’s cost pressures and the district’s budget constraints.
A motion to approve agenda items 7.01–7.05 (which include the technology staff payments, the Milaca agreement and the Fisher‑Titus athletic training contract) was moved and approved by roll call. The transcript does not include the contract documents themselves or vendor signatures; the discussion focused on service continuity and the district’s willingness to accept higher costs to retain a valued trainer on staff.
