Summary

The board approved contracts to turf Madison County High, Buckhorn High and New Hope High football fields and track projects; members said the district will now have turf at all high school football fields and praised increased athletic support under current leadership.

The board considered and approved bids to install turf fields (and associated track work) at Madison County High, Buckhorn High and New Hope High. A motion to approve the Madison County High turf and track bid passed by voice; subsequent motions to approve Buckhorn and New Hope bids also passed by voice vote.

Board members said the approvals will result in all district high school football fields being turfed and praised the district leadership's increased support for athletics, noting that principals typically cannot raise sufficient local funds for such projects on their own. The board recorded brief discussion but took the approvals as part of the administrative/consent agenda.
