Summary
At the Huron School District 02-2 Board of Education meeting the board approved the consent agenda, approved an instructional calendar change moving Huron Virtual High School under Huron High School reporting, and voted to enter an executive session for negotiations under SDCL 1-25-2(4).
The Huron School District 02-2 Board of Education held three formal votes during the meeting.
Consent agenda: The board approved the consent agenda, which included approval of bills, seven new hires to be covered by the district workers' compensation plan, three resignations (listed in the agenda as Diane Ulmer, Caden Doris and Ron Jacobs), one teacher contract for Jaden Pearson for the 2025–26 school year, classified recognition requests for negotiation purposes, an open enrollment request (OE2025-02), several grant applications (including a $2,000 American Bank and Trust spirit card request, a $1,400 Buchanan K–1 center spirit card request, and a $3,500 whole-kids garden grant application for school hydroponics), Amanda Riley’s separate application to a tab-grab program for $23,000 to help school lunch debt relief, and a request from American Legion Post 7 to use district transportation at standard rates. The motion to approve the consent agenda was moved and seconded and the board approved the motion by voice vote.
Instructional change for Huron Virtual High School: The board approved an instructional change request to move Huron Virtual High School from its own attendance center reporting to a calendar under Huron High School. Superintendent Dr. Steinhaus said, “we're moving it from it being its own stand alone to being a calendar under Huron High School, and that's what this request is for.” The board moved, seconded and approved the instructional change by voice vote.
Executive session for negotiations: The board voted to enter executive session in accordance with South Dakota codified law 1-25-2 subsection 4 (negotiations). The motion to go into executive session was moved, seconded and approved and the board recessed to reconvene in Dr. Steinhaus's office for the session. No substantive details of the negotiation were discussed in open session and no action was reported before the recess.
All votes were taken by voice vote; the transcript records the motions, second and the board chair calling for ayes and saying the motions carried but does not record a roll-call tally in the public transcript.
