Board approves early literacy plan and routine consent items, including $542,629.37 in vouchers
Summary
The board approved the district’s early literacy remediation plan required by Act 20 and passed the consent agenda, which included travel to SkillsUSA, hires for summer school, policy first readings and authorization to pay $542,629.37 in vouchers.
The Dodgeland School District board on March 10 approved an early literacy remediation plan required under state law (Act 20) and passed a consent agenda that included routine personnel and financial items.
Administrators said the early literacy plan incorporates statutory requirements and procedural changes such as notifying parents within 15 days of assessment periods; the administrator noted the mandate carries requirements but no additional state funding. The board approved the plan and was told the document will be posted on the district website.
The consent agenda — approved by motion — included authorization for travel to the SkillsUSA state competition in Madison (April 2026), approval of minutes from the Feb. 23 finance committee and board meetings, authorization to hire personnel for 2026 summer school (Emily Sell listed at $25.50 per hour), first readings of revised board policies (student supervision and child abuse/neglect policy updates), and authorization to pay vouchers totaling $542,629.37. The board also acknowledged resignations and program staffing updates for special-education paraprofessionals and other support staff, with effective dates recorded in the minutes.
The board discussed routing proposed handbook changes through the policy committee before returning them to the full board for action and scheduled upcoming committee meetings and calendar items.
