Board approves October bills, referendum bills, financial statements and accepts donations; safety protocol adopted
Summary
At its regular meeting the Two Rivers school board approved October bills ($925,421.53), referendum bills ($63,392.36), September financial statements, accepted two small donations and voted to adopt the annual Act 143 safety protocol; the meeting ended with a motion to enter closed session under state statute 19.85(1)(f).
The Two Rivers school board handled several formal actions at Monday's meeting.
Financial approvals: The board approved payment of October bills totaling $925,421.53 after a motion and voice vote. The board also approved referendum bills (part 2) for $63,392.36 and approved the district's September monthly financial statements by motion and voice vote.
Safety protocol: Under new business, the board reviewed the district's Act 143 safety protocol (aligned with policy 84-20), including required ALICE drills and a simplified crisis-management plan the district developed with school resource officers. Board members asked whether law enforcement had reviewed the protocol; administrators confirmed SRO involvement. A motion to approve the safety plan carried by voice vote.
Donations: The board accepted a $50 donation from Kip and Elizabeth Barrett to the Angel Fund and a monetary donation from Christine Vogt for a student lunch account; both were accepted by motion and voice vote.
Closed session: At the end of the public meeting the board voted to adjourn into closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(f) to discuss disciplinary data of specific persons; roll-call votes were recorded and the motion carried.
Meeting procedure and vote records: Most approvals were taken by motion and voice vote with no roll-call tallies provided in the discussion. The transcript records motions and seconds for each action and the chair declared motions carried after the voice votes.
Why it matters: Financial approvals and the approved safety protocol represent formal district governance actions; adoption of the crisis-management plan and confirmation of law-enforcement review are relevant to school safety oversight.
