Summary
At its March 10 meeting, the Shawano School District board unanimously approved the agenda, a consent package including $2,571,934 in vouchers and a $9,831.79 FFA donation, adopted an Academic Career Plan, renewed a five-year charter contract for Hillcrest/LEADS and set a special meeting for April 14 to consider buying property near the high school.
The Shawano School District Board of Education unanimously approved several items at its March 10 regular meeting, including a consent agenda with $2,571,934 in vouchers and the renewal of a five‑year charter contract for Hillcrest/LEADS.
President Mike Musolff called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. and, after the Pledge of Allegiance, board member Bobbi Lemerond moved to approve the evening’s agenda; John Arens seconded and the motion carried. Later, Karen Houston moved to approve the consent agenda, which the board approved by voice vote. The consent items included minutes of the Feb. 10 meeting; vouchers totaling $2,571,934; reported revenue of $1,431,982; Start College Now/Early College Credit Program application approvals; a donation from the Shawano FFA Alumni of $9,831.79 for animal-science small-animal cages and $400 for FFA-week ice cream; and the announced retirement of Wendy Esch at the end of the school year.
The board also moved, discussed and approved several action items: the Academic Career Plan (presented by Matt Raduechel) was adopted following a motion by Lemerond and a second by Tim Renard; a five-year charter renewal for Hillcrest/LEADS (presented by Principal Aaron Manders) was approved after a motion by John Arens and a second by Karen Houston. All votes recorded during the meeting were unanimous in favor with one member absent (Christine McKinnies).
Additionally, the board set a Special Meeting of the Electorate for April 14 at 5:00 p.m. to consider purchasing property near Shawano Community High School for future use. Mrs. Lemerond moved to set the special meeting date; Mr. Al Pyatskowit seconded and the motion carried.
The board’s actions were procedural and routine in nature; no motions failed or were amended during the meeting. The next procedural step is the April 14 Special Meeting of Electors, where the property purchase proposal will be considered.
