Board names wellness and budget committee members, discusses special committee to study four-day week
Summary
The board appointed staff and community members to the wellness committee and named two people to the budget committee; members discussed but did not finalize forming a special committee to study a four-day school week, leaving details for post-retreat action.
Board members moved and approved appointments to the district wellness committee and the Dufur SD 29 budget committee. The wellness committee appointments listed staff and two board members; the budget committee appointments named Matthew Claussen and Jeff Lipinski (to fill an unexpired term). "I'll make a motion to appoint [the names listed]," a board member said, and the motions passed by voice vote.
The board also discussed whether to create a special committee to study the four-day school week after the upcoming retreat. Members expressed differing views on timing and staffing capacity; some urged forming a committee promptly and having the chair appoint members, while others recommended waiting until the retreat and the May meeting to formalize membership and process. No formal committee appointment was recorded in the transcript.
