Summary

Doctor Sutton outlined a process to pursue an e‑learning option for emergencies and the board approved appointing special conflict counsel over alleged IGA breaches by the Addison Park District; a brief public hearing on e‑learning is planned for August.

Doctor Sutton previewed an option to implement e‑learning for inclement weather or localized school emergencies, describing a process that would include training, communications and a brief hearing before the August board meeting to collect public comments and potentially approve an e‑learning plan. He emphasized the goal of creating an option that could be used selectively—for example, to serve students at a single affected building while other schools remain in person.

Separately, the board approved appointing special conflict counsel related to potential action to terminate a 1999 intergovernmental agreement with the Addison Park District that governed a jointly used gymnasium at Army Trail School. District leadership told the board it had provided two‑year notice to end the agreement and said the park district had not met its obligations under portions of the IGA; the transcript contains no response from the Park District.

The board agreed to further work on e‑learning logistics and to proceed with legal counsel engagement for the IGA matter.
