Superintendent Dr. Becky Schuchman said Gillespie requested the cooperative and that a two-year contract would be required under IHSA rules; she also said one factor considered was whether a cooperative would bump the district into a different class of play. Andrew Johnson moved to approve the cooperative; Maya Reid seconded and the motion passed by roll-call vote 6-0 with Brandon Little absent.
