Board approves consent agenda: donations, retirement acknowledgement, overnight‑trip policies and coaching roster
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda accepting donations from the Ed Foundation and local donors, acknowledged the pending retirement of Cal Vanderhoek after 27 years, approved overnight trip expectations documents, and confirmed Bobby Johnson as a volunteer junior high boys basketball coach.
Under the consent agenda the Cannon Falls School Board accepted multiple donations: $2,677.99 from the district education foundation for calculators; $1,360 for art room chairs; $704 for a base camp leadership class; $754.38 for early learner social‑skills materials; $500 for a virtual author visit; $3,000 from the softball booster club for student activity funds; $2.50 from Jim Altop for robotics; and $500 from Laurel and David Kupwick for the school forest memorial fund. Speaker 7 read the amounts into the record and the board approved acceptance as part of the consent agenda.
The board also acknowledged the retirement of Cal Vanderhoek, who will retire at the end of the school year after 27 years with the district. Additionally, the board approved two documents clarifying expectations for student overnight trips and chaperone responsibilities; administrators said the documents were developed from district policy (policy 6 10) and tour‑company language to provide more detailed operational expectations.
Finally, the board confirmed an updated 2025–26 coaching list that includes volunteer Bobby Johnson for junior high boys basketball. Each item passed on a motion under the consent agenda or subsequent motion as recorded.
