Board explores leasing church space for staff daycare
Summary
Board members reported meeting with local churches to explore leasing space for a small daycare to support staff; no decision was made and staffing ratios and lease details remain under review.
Board members discussed exploratory talks with local churches about leasing space to run a small daycare aimed primarily at supporting school staff.
Discussion: The chair reported a positive meeting with local churches to assess whether church space could be leased to operate a daycare. The board said the proposal responds to staff requests for accessible childcare so employees do not have to leave work to retrieve children. Speakers noted that staffing ratios and other regulatory requirements remain under review and that no lease or firm agreement has been reached.
Context: The board framed the idea as a staff-support measure rather than an immediate operational change. It emphasized that more information on staffing ratios and logistics is needed before any commitment.
Next steps: Staff and board members will continue gathering information about regulatory staffing ratios and lease terms; no timeline for a decision was recorded in the transcript.
