The Beatrice Public Schools Board of Education approved quotes from Prairie Mechanical on Jan. 13 to perform repairs at Beatrice Middle School.

Administration said some repairs surfaced over the fall and during the December/January break and are now at a point where work is required. The administration provided trustees a list of repairs; some items are interior and will be addressed now, while other exterior repairs will be deferred until warmer weather and addressed in summer.

The motion to approve the Prairie Mechanical quotes was made, seconded and passed by voice vote; the transcript shows the motion and that it passed but does not include a roll-call tally.

Ending: Staff will coordinate scheduling for work and provide trustees with the repair list and timing for exterior items.
