Summary

The board approved a 66 0 3 shared-services agreement with Heartland Lakeside and other nearby districts for physical therapy services in 2024–25; administration said the district expects to be billed for approximately three hours under the agreement.

The Merton Community School District board approved a 66 0 3 inter-district agreement with Heartland Lakeside School District (and multiple neighboring districts) to provide shared physical therapy services for the 2024–25 school year.

Staff member (S2) explained the past six years of shared arrangements and said the proposed agreement reduces the district's anticipated billed time to about three hours for the upcoming year. "So, again, it's great that we're going to come together to offer that shared service," S2 said, and recommended board approval of the 66 0 3 agreement as presented.

Committee members asked procedural clarifying questions about the number of hours and which districts had already approved similar agreements. S2 said the administrations had negotiated language to set a lower minimum (three hours) based on anticipated district needs; the board voted to approve the agreement.

The transcript does not provide the contract text or precise financial terms; the motion was presented as an administrative recommendation and the board recorded it as carried.
