Summary
At its June 9 meeting the Skyline Schools Board of Education approved student meal prices for 2025–26, authorized a rebid of the vocational building roof project, approved a change in property insurance provider effective July 1, and authorized end-of-year fund transfers. Health insurance costs rose about 1% per employee.
The Skyline Schools Board of Education met on June 9, 2025, and approved several fiscal and operational items for the coming school year, including new student meal prices, a change in property insurance provider and authorization to rebid the vocational building roof project.
The board approved breakfast and lunch prices for 2025–26. Breakfast will be $2.40 for students in grades K–5, $2.45 for grades 6–12 and $3.00 for adults. Lunch will be $3.70 for K–5 students, $4.10 for grades 6–12 and $6.00 for adults. The motion to set meal prices was made by David McComb and seconded by Allen Smith; the minutes record the motion as carried.
On facilities, the board agreed to rebid the vocational building roof project after minor specification adjustments; bids are due by noon on June 13, 2025. The board approved moving forward to award the project to a qualified bidder once responses are reviewed. Jerry DeWeese moved the motion to rebid and Mark Graber seconded; the motion carried.
The board also voted to switch the district's property insurance from EMC to KICS effective July 1, 2025. David McComb made the motion to change carriers, with Jerry DeWeese seconding; the minutes show the motion carried.
For fiscal housekeeping, the board authorized Superintendent Becca Flowers and Business Manager Dave Schmidt to complete FY2025 end-of-year fund transfers. That motion was made by Jerry DeWeese and seconded by David McComb and recorded as carried.
The agenda included a "Health Insurance Review" noting an approximate 1% increase in employee health insurance costs for 2025–26; the minutes do not attribute that figure to a specific speaker or show a related vote. Board members also received first-look presentations on handbook policy updates for SES, SMS and SHS and on KASB policy updates. Principals Diane House and Steven Novotny reported on end-of-year attendance, tardies and academic matters; Novotny reviewed coaching expectations.
The board held two brief executive sessions concerning employer-employee negotiations, each described in the minutes as necessary to protect the district's negotiating position; the sessions began and ended with times recorded and administrators and the business manager invited to attend. The meeting adjourned at 7:19 a.m.
The minutes do not include vote tallies; all recorded motions are noted as "motion carried."
