Summary
At its meeting, the Mobridge-Pollock 62-6 school board approved certified staff hires, authorized advertising for coaching and co-curricular positions, accepted resignations, approved a 3% increase to nursing and occupational therapy contracts and scheduled a special meeting on a negotiated agreement.
The Mobridge-Pollock 62-6 school board approved several personnel moves and contract adjustments during a routine meeting. The board voted by voice to approve certified staff, authorize advertising for coaching vacancies including a track coach and a Westside coaching role, and hire co-curricular staff. The board also accepted multiple resignations and approved advertising to fill several openings, including a speech-related position noted as SLPA/speech-language services.
The chair said the district planned to continue school nursing and occupational-therapy services and reported, “There was a 3% increase to those 2 contracts.” A board member was noted to recuse themself from the contract discussion because of a hospital/patient relationship; the recusal was raised during the meeting but the transcript does not identify the member by name. The board approved the contract adjustments by voice vote; specific vote tallies and the motion makers and seconders were not specified in the meeting record.
The chair announced a special meeting to consider a negotiated agreement, scheduled for Thursday at noon via Zoom, and said the agenda/listing would be made available. The chair characterized the negotiation as nearing completion and indicated the special session would likely be the only item on that meeting’s agenda.
The meeting record supplied routine procedural motions and approvals; it does not include roll-call vote counts or the names of members who moved or seconded the motions. The last recorded items were the announcement of the special meeting and adjournment.
