Summary

At its meeting the Savannah R-III School District board elected officers, authorized banking signatures, approved several vendor bids including roofing and photography, and approved a letter of intent that includes a $264,600 district contribution.

The Savannah R-III School District board elected officers and approved several contracts and a district contribution at its meeting.

Board members chose a president, vice president, treasurer and secretary during the meeting’s officer elections; the board also named a Missouri School Boards’ Association delegate and alternate. The board then approved updates to banking signatures, accepted mowing and photography bids, approved a high school roofing contract, and authorized a letter of intent to apply that included a district contribution of $264,600.

The superintendent opened nominations and the board voted on each post in order. Mary Hyatt was recommended and approved as board treasurer; Jess Gillette was nominated and approved as board secretary. Deb was selected as the MSBA delegate and an alternate was named in case Deb cannot serve. The board approved updating authorized banking signatures to include the board president’s signature and to place the superintendent as an authorized signer.

On contracts and bids, the board approved the mowing contracts as presented and accepted a two-year photography services bid recommended to "B Photography." The board approved a roofing contract for the high school; staff noted the job is custom metal work tied to long-standing roof issues and that the selected contractor previously completed hail-damage repairs on district buildings.

The board also approved a letter of intent to apply (described in the meeting as "K. 2025 '20 '6 clear letter intent to apply") and recorded the district contribution amount of $264,600 as part of that application.

The board moved the June business meeting to June 19 and adjourned after routine announcements.
