Loading...
Summary
The board approved a range of operational items April 13 — including lacrosse and Alpine skiing co‑ops, continued membership in the WISNet nutrition purchasing cooperative, an updated facility‑use fee schedule for artificial fields, and a package of policy changes — then voted to enter closed session to discuss personnel and contract matters.
The Wausau School District Board of Education approved multiple operational agenda items at its April 13 meeting.
The board approved boys and girls lacrosse cooperative agreements and a modification to add Newman Catholic to the boys' coop so students can compete. The board also approved continuation of an Alpine skiing coop involving DC Everest, Wausau West and Wausau East. Administrators said the JV baseball coop with Newman was informational and pending final agreement.
The board approved continued membership in the Wisconsin School Nutrition Purchasing Cooperative (WISNet) for 2026–27 under the presented cooperative agreement and also approved immediate changes to the district's facility‑use fee schedule to reflect costs for artificial fields and field lighting. In addition, the board approved a set of policy changes reviewed earlier at the Committee of the Whole; some revisions were technical corrections.
Near the end of the meeting the chair asked for a motion to enter closed session "to discuss preliminary notice of non renewal, state statute 19.85(1)(c)," and the motion to go into closed session was moved and seconded.
All of the listed operational motions carried by voice vote as presented; where items were informational (JV baseball coop) no final board action was required.
