Board sets 2026–27 prices and substitute pay, approves preschool calendars and one‑time stipend
Summary
The board approved 2026–27 meal pricing and substitute pay adjustments, set preschool calendars for 3‑ and 4‑year‑olds, and approved a one‑time stipend for Matt Erickson to cover interim responsibilities.
The Ogilvie Public School District board approved the recommended prices for the 2026–27 school year and a raise to substitute teacher pay intended to improve recruitment in a four‑day week context. Board members discussed the proposed substitute pay schedule and recommended an increase; the board approved the recommendation and related meal price lines (adult lunch $5.65; adult breakfast $3.25) as presented.
The board also approved preschool calendars for 4‑year‑old and 3‑year‑old programs with the 3‑year‑old program reduced to two days (Tuesday/Thursday) because enrollment numbers were lower. Members noted enrollment thresholds (20 students) that would trigger staffing changes.
Finally, the board approved a one‑time retroactive stipend for Matt Erickson in recognition of additional duties he performed while vacancies existed. Board discussion referenced a stipend calculation that the transcript rendered ambiguously; staff said the intended amount reflected hourly wage differences and hours worked during June and would be finalized by the business office.
