Clarksville board approves advertising for registered nurse at $55 per hour; weekly hours unclear
Summary
During a Sept. 19 special meeting, the Clarksville Community School Board of Education voted unanimously to advertise for a registered nurse at $55 per hour and to use PRN staffing if a local RN is not found; the minutes record an unclear "810 per week" figure that needs clarification from the district.
The Clarksville Community School of Education Board voted Sept. 19 to advertise for a Registered Nurse position with pay listed at $55 per hour; the motion, moved by Shelley Maiers and seconded by Tim Backer, carried unanimously.
According to the board minutes, the position was described as "810 per week at $55 per hour" and the minutes add that if a local RN cannot be found, the district will use PRN staffing. The minutes do not clarify the meaning of "810 per week" (it may be a transcription or typographical error) and do not specify the number of hours expected, whether the amount refers to hours, a stipend, or a typographical error. That numeric phrasing is flagged as unclear in the record and requires confirmation from district administration.
The vote was recorded as unanimous among members present (Justin Clark, Tim Backer, Phil Barnett and Shelley Maiers); one member, Brandon Kampman, was absent. The minutes include no discussion of budget source for the position, expected start date, or whether the role is part-time or full-time.
The motion authorizes advertising for the position; the minutes do not record the final hiring decision. Superintendent Bryan Boysen and Business Manager/Board Secretary Shellee Bartlett were present at the meeting and would be the likely contacts for further details.
The board adjourned at 7:45 a.m. The district would need to provide a clarification about the weekly amount recorded in the minutes and additional details about hours and the hiring timeline to fully inform applicants and the public.
