Elmhurst SD 205 board approves $200,000 fund transfer, CrisisGO contract and SEIU pact
Summary
The board approved a $200,000 transfer from the debt service fund to the education fund, a three‑year contract with CrisisGO for district security services, the 2026–27 student handbook, and a four‑year collective bargaining agreement with SEIU Local 73.
At its June 23 meeting the Elmhurst Community Unit School District 205 board approved several operational items to prepare for the 2026–27 school year.
Finance director Mr. Blumquist recommended transferring $200,000 in fiscal year 2025–26 interest earnings from the debt service fund to the education fund, explaining that property tax levy revenues were sufficient to cover debt service. The board approved the transfer by roll call (6–0, one absent).
The board also authorized a three‑year contract with CrisisGO for districtwide security services beginning in 2026–27. District staff described CrisisGO as a platform that would expand internal emergency communication and notification capabilities, enhance reunification procedures, and support medical emergency management and post‑incident recovery while preserving compliance with Alyssa’s Law. A board member said the system would “greatly enhance our ability to get parents back in touch with their students” during reunification. The motion passed by roll call (6–0, one absent).
Board members approved the updated 2026–27 parent/student handbook for grades 6–12, which incorporates calendar, fee, IHSA policy updates, and grading practice changes at York High School.
Finally, the board approved a tentative four‑year collective bargaining agreement with SEIU Local 73 representing custodial and maintenance staff; the union membership ratified the agreement the prior week. Administration said the agreement takes effect July 1, 2026 and expires June 30, 2030. Board approval was unanimous with one member absent.
All motions passed by roll call with six yes votes and one absence. District staff said they will bring implementation details and timelines to the board as each item proceeds.
