Antigo board approves Fund 46 transfer, hearing officer, athletics membership and schoolhandbook updates
Summary
Trustees approved several routine business items including an allowable-surplus transfer to Fund 46, appointment of an impartial hearing officer, WIAA membership renewal, revised co-curricular codes and the AMS student handbook; most votes were unanimous and administrators said fuller financial numbers will follow in August.
At its July 27 meeting the Unified School District of Antigo Board of Education approved multiple routine administrative and policy items.
The board approved a motion to transfer any allowable surplus from fiscal year 2025-26 into Fund 46, a capital-improvement strategy the administration said has allowed the district to accumulate nearly $5.5 million and earn approximately $400,000 in interest through strategic alignment of referendum and grant funds. Kelly, the district's director of business services, told trustees that the exact amount to be transferred cannot be finalized until audit closeout and that a report will be available in August.
Members also approved attorney Robert Burns as an impartial hearing officer at $250 per hour to fulfill the district's grievance process needs; board discussion covered typical hearing hour estimates and the role of the hearing officer in the grievance timeline.
The board unanimously approved routine program items: renewal of WIAA senior-high membership for 2026-27, revised unified co-curricular codes for middle and high school students (with new app-based communications), and the AMS student handbook for 2026-27. Trustees also approved the first reading of Neola Act 89 policy updates required by state law.
Votes on these agenda items were recorded as unanimous where noted; board members asked administration to supply more detailed financial figures at the next committee meeting and requested that any future, non-routine items be scheduled with the board's agenda-timing policy PO0166 in mind.
Provenance: The items and votes are recorded under the consent agenda and board-action items for transfers, appointments and policy updates.
