At the Aug. 12 Elm River Township School Board meeting in Winona, visitor Terry Lajeunesse presented a written proposal asking the board to add an administrative assistant position to the Board of Education.

The minutes state only that "Terry Lajeunesse presented a written proposal to the Board of Education for the addition of an Administrative Assistant to the Board of Education." The record does not show that the board took formal action, directed staff to investigate the request, or scheduled follow-up; no motion or vote on the proposal is recorded.

The proposal was listed under "Visitors" in the minutes and entered into the record. The board continued with routine business after the presentation, including approvals of a millage renewal, a REAP grant, and other agenda items.

If the board wishes to consider creating a paid administrative assistant position, the next steps typically include directing staff to prepare a proposal with a job description, estimated cost, and recommended funding source; the minutes do not indicate whether such follow-up was requested. The board’s next regular meeting was scheduled for Sept. 16 at 6:00 p.m.

The minutes do not quote Lajeunesse verbatim beyond noting that a written proposal was presented.
