Board approves five-year athletic-training contract with Beacon Orthopedics and TriHealth including annual investment
Summary
The Kings Local School District board approved a five-year contract with Beacon Orthopedics in partnership with TriHealth to provide athletic training services and an annual $75,000 marketing/investment commitment to the district.
The Kings Local School District board approved a five-year contract with Beacon Orthopedics, working with TriHealth, to provide athletic training services and other clinical supports for student-athletes and staff.
Superintendent Greg Sears told the board the combined Beacon–TriHealth proposal includes athletic trainers, access to physicians and physical therapy, priority scheduling and an annual $75,000 financial commitment to the district for five years. “Beacon combined with TriHealth ... have shown their willingness to invest in this community,” Sears said.
Sears said Beacon has been a partner with the district for more than 25 years and that the new agreement adds a formal annual financial investment that the district had not previously received. The board voted to approve the superintendent’s approval items, which included this contract; the motion carried on a roll-call vote.
Why this matters: The contract continues a long-term clinical relationship and adds a recurring financial contribution to the district budget for the five‑year period. The contract language and final terms were negotiated and finalized before tonight’s vote, per the superintendent’s remarks.
Next steps: The district will implement the contract per the approved terms and monitor service delivery and the financial investment over the five-year period.
