Board approves new 6th-grade transition teacher and discusses ordering an 81-passenger bus
Summary
Trustees approved creation of a 6th-grade transition teacher position and discussed purchasing an 81-passenger replacement bus; staff noted bus orders are backlogged nearly two years and that ordering now locks price and queue position.
Board members voted to create a new 6th-grade transition teacher position after staff requested the addition to support students moving into middle grades. The voice vote was recorded as in favor on the motion to create the position.
Separately, staff asked for approval to purchase an 81-passenger school bus as part of the district's replacement schedule and cautioned that buses are "almost 2 years out now," so ordering now locks price and places the district in the manufacturer queue. A board member moved to approve the bus purchase; the transcript records the motion and discussion about delivery timing and price-locking but does not contain a recorded, labeled roll-call tally in the provided excerpt.
