Votes at a glance: CUSD 200 board approves personnel notices, fee schedule, simulators and BASP rate
Summary
At its April 8 meeting the CUSD 200 Board approved annual non‑reemployment resolutions for non‑tenured certified staff, a 2026–2027 student fee schedule (projected ~$600,000 if fully collected), purchase of 24 driver education simulators, and a BASP session rate increase to $10.50.
At the April 8, 2026 regular meeting, the CUSD 200 Board of Education approved a set of action items by roll‑call vote.
Personnel resolutions: The board adopted two annual personnel resolutions under the Illinois School Code (section 24‑11) authorizing non‑reemployment notices for first‑ and second‑year non‑tenured certified staff (full‑time) and for part‑time non‑tenured certified staff. Dr. Schuler said these are routine annual personnel actions and are separate from the district’s FY27 budget realignment discussion.
Student fees: The board approved the recommended 2026–2027 student fee schedule (finance committee option), described as returning fees to pre‑pandemic levels with some workbook fees consolidated. District staff estimated approximately $600,000 in revenue if all fees are paid in full.
Equipment procurement: The board approved purchase of 24 virtual driver‑education simulators and related software upgrades from the district’s existing vendor. District officials said the current simulator software is more than a decade old and no longer supported; the approved procurement keeps the existing cab housings and upgrades software and displays.
BASP rates: The Board approved increasing the District’s before‑and‑after‑school program session rate from $9.50 to $10.50 for 2026–2027 to address modest program deficits and rising operating costs. Administrators emphasized the program aims to be cost‑neutral and that any surplus is reinvested in the program.
Voting: Roll calls associated with these items were recorded as affirmative by the members listed in each vote. No negative or abstaining votes were recorded in the meeting transcript for these items.
What’s next: HR will issue notices and the district will publish the new fee schedule and BASP rates; operations will proceed with simulator procurement and implementation plans.
