Lockwood K-12 board adopts estimated permissive funds resolution, approves clubs and contracts
Summary
At a regular meeting, the Lockwood K-12 board approved an estimated permissive-funds resolution for public posting, recognized a new Iron Lion Strength club, adopted the 2627 school calendar and approved contracts including a physical therapist and a formal agreement with the Boys & Girls Club; several routine votes passed by voice vote.
The Lockwood K-12 Board of Trustees approved a set of routine agenda items at its meeting, including adoption of the district's estimated permissive-funds resolution for posting and scheduling the required public hearing ahead of the levy cycle effective July 1, 2026.
The board also voted to recognize a new student co-curricular group, the Iron Lion Strength Club, after staff described options for powerlifting and Olympic-style lifts and the fundraising that would be needed for equipment. The board approved a physical-therapy services contract that will continue services for special-education students during the 2025'26 school year and approved a formal agreement with the Boys & Girls Club to clarify space use and payments after the organization had operated on campus without a written contract for several years.
In other business, trustees adopted the proposed 2627 school calendar (including plans to add health Fridays and publish final blackout dates before the calendar is posted) and approved a small increase in bus route mileage so the district can seek county reimbursement. Several agenda items were adopted by motion and voice vote; the meeting record shows the motions were seconded and passed.
Votes at a glance - Estimated permissive-funds resolution (effective 07/01/2026): approved (motion moved and seconded; voice vote). - Iron Lion Strength Club recognition: approved (voice vote). - School calendar 2627: approved (voice vote). - Physical-therapist contract (25'26 school year): approved (voice vote). - Boys & Girls Club agreement: approved (voice vote). - Bus route mileage increase (county reimbursement): approved (voice vote).
Why it matters The permissive-funds resolution begins a statutory process required before the district seeks certain levy authority and sets preliminary numbers that will be publicly posted and refined before final approval. Approving co-curricular clubs, calendar changes and service contracts affects student programming and operations for the coming school year.
What's next The permissive-funds resolution will be posted and a public hearing scheduled as required; the board will return later in the levy process to set final levy rates. The administration will implement the approved contracts and calendar changes for the 2627 school year.
