Campbell County board raises retired certified substitute pay, accepts grant application, approves contract and policy changes
Summary
At its Nov. 17 meeting the Campbell County Board of Education approved the district's application for the FY26 SPARK grant, raised the daily rate for retired certified substitutes from $145 to $180, approved a Broadleaf Behavioral Services contract, finalized the Title I family engagement policy, and approved several other administrative items via the consent agenda.
The Campbell County Board of Education on Nov. 17 approved a package of personnel, policy and contract items, including a pay increase for retired certified substitutes and the district's application to a state grant program.
The board voted unanimously to accept the district proposal to apply for the FY26 Supporting Postsecondary Achievement and Resources for Kentucky Students with Disabilities (SPARK) Grant (Motion 25-110). The minutes record that this vote approved the district's proposal to submit the application; it does not indicate that any award was made.
Separately, the board approved raising the daily rate of pay for certified substitutes who have retired from Campbell County Schools from $145 to $180 (Motion 25-111). That motion, moved by Kimber Fender and seconded by Tamara Kuhel, passed unanimously. The board also approved the second and final reading of the revised Title I–Parent and Family Engagement Policy (Motion 25-112), a collateral assignment related to the Velo Riverside PILOT (Motion 25-113), a per-diem hourly contract with Broadleaf Behavioral Services to provide additional behavior supports as needed (Motion 25-114; the minutes do not record the per-diem rate), and acceptance of the Advanced Coursework District Plan (Motion 25-115). Finally, the board approved the consent agenda (Motion 25-116), which included meeting minutes and bill approvals by voucher number.
The minutes list multiple personnel hires, extra-duty assignments and leaves of absence across district campuses; these were recorded for the public record. The board adjourned at 7:23 p.m.
Items approved at the meeting that require staff follow-up include processing the substitute pay change, implementing the Advanced Coursework Plan, finalizing the Broadleaf contract details, and pursuing the SPARK grant application as submitted in the motion. Where the minutes do not include specifics (for example the Broadleaf per-diem rate), staff follow-up is required to publish contract details.
