Board approves $15,000 annual athletic trainer contract with Avita Health; Megan Durban to remain trainer
Summary
The board approved a services agreement with Avita Health System for athletic training at $15,000 annually with an automatic one-year renewal; Avita will employ current trainer Megan Durban and the superintendent said the district's athletic training services will continue under the new agreement.
The board approved an athletic trainer services agreement with Avita Health System that the superintendent said will cost $15,000 annually and include an automatic one-year renewal for the 2027'28 school year. Superintendent Gary Chapman told the board that Avita will employ the district's current trainer, Megan Durban, and that the company had been responsive during negotiations.
Chapman said the agreement was pursued after Knox Community Hospital notified the district it would likely raise fees, prompting the district to solicit alternatives. Board members responded positively to the new arrangement.
The superintendent presented several other consent items at the same time: removing an elementary freezer from inventory, employing RBTs as Mid Ohio employees for the 2026'7 school year, contracting Central Ohio Behavior Consulting for services for Leanne Shepard, entering agreements with Meta Solutions (FinalForms) and K12 attendance software, and accepting the resignation of Karen Bartlett after nine years with the district. The board approved the superintendent's consent agenda in a roll-call vote.
Recorded votes in the transcript show the listed members voting yes on the superintendent's consent items.
