Sheridan SD 48J board approves three resolutions, raises substitute rate
Summary
The Sheridan SD 48J board approved three resolutions including permission to spend grant funds and a resolution updating substitute pay; all motions passed on roll-call votes during the December board meeting.
The Sheridan School District 48J Board of Directors approved three resolutions at its regular meeting, including a measure setting substitute pay rates.
The board voted to adopt resolution 25-01 as presented after a motion and second, with members recording aye votes and the motion carried. The board then approved resolution 25-02, authorizing the collection and expenditure of grant funds the district has received. Finally, the board accepted resolution 25-03, which establishes a new substitute pay rate for positions hired through EduStaff; board discussion cited an $18-per-hour example for some classified substitute assignments (Custodial/IA/food-service/clerical) during the meeting.
Superintendent (unnamed in the record) and board members said the resolutions are administrative steps needed to spend grant money, address audit-corrective items, and make substitute pay more competitive with neighboring districts. Board members did not describe changes to licensed pay formulas, which remain governed by state formulas, the superintendent said.
The motions carried on voice and roll-call votes recorded during the meeting. The board did not identify dissenting votes in the meeting transcript.
The board said staff will implement the appropriation and payroll changes and return any required updates for further authorization if needed.
