Diane House, elementary school principal and MS co‑principal, told the Skyline Schools Board of Education on Oct. 13 that the district’s Spring 2025 state assessments have been finalized; the minutes do not include the scores or a school‑by‑school breakdown.
House and High School/Middle School co‑principal Steven Novotny also reported on building activities, fall benchmark work and calendar highlights. The board was told the KESA accreditation plan will be handed out to parents during parent‑teacher conferences.
Novotny gave an update and timeline for a KSDE OCR/Perkins civil rights audit; the minutes note the audit update but do not include a detailed schedule or next steps in the published minutes. Novotny also reported that the district’s 2025–26 SO66 was submitted and that the Kansas Association of School Boards has shared legislative session talking points.
The board received brief information about enrollment for 2025–26; the minutes record that enrollment numbers were reported but do not provide the actual figures. Trustees asked for routine reports and professional learning opportunities were listed, including KARE on Oct. 30 and KASB Nov. 14–16.
Next procedural steps and specific numeric details (assessment scores, enrollment totals, audit timetable) were not recorded in the minutes; the board approved related agenda and consent items and proceeded with other business.
