Board approves routine items: consent agenda, calendar, personnel and construction bids
Summary
In a series of routine actions the Center Grove board approved the 2026–27 calendar, supplemental personnel report, and construction lab renovation bids; the consent agenda passed 3–1 and other motions passed unanimously.
The Center Grove Community School Corp. board disposed of several agenda items by voice vote.
Consent agenda: A motion to approve the consent agenda passed by voice vote with a recorded tally of three in favor and one opposed. The transcript does not record individual roll-call votes for the consent agenda motion.
2026–27 calendar: Administrators recommended using two performance-qualified student waiver days to start the 2026–27 school year so that students would begin on Wednesday, Aug. 5, while maintaining 178 student instructional days; the board approved the calendar by voice vote, 4–0.
Supplemental personnel report: The board approved the supplemental personnel report, authorizing temporary, part-time and seasonal staffing changes; the motion passed 4–0.
Construction lab renovation bids: The administration recommended awarding contracts for the Center Grove High School construction lab renovation to multiple contractors (SCS Construction Services Inc. for general trades; Harold Fish LLC for mechanical, plumbing and fire protection; Maverick Electrical Solutions for electrical and technology) with a total base bid of $356,425. Administrators said work could begin as early as June 1 with an expected completion date of July 26 and funding to come from bonds issued last school year; the board approved the awards 4–0.
Several board members asked for follow-up details that were not provided in the meeting record, including the expected additional student capacity from the construction-lab expansion and the exact year-to-year cost reductions tied to multi-year purchasing cycles. Administrators committed to follow up outside the meeting.
