Board approves Sources of Strength MOU, open enrollment and creates food-service ad-hoc committee
Summary
The board approved an MOU with Iowa County Sources of Strength, approved open enrollment in and out, and created an ad-hoc committee to review the school food service program (committee passed 6-0-1 with one abstention).
The Board of Trustees approved several operational items including a memorandum of understanding with Iowa County Sources of Strength, open enrollment requests, and creation of an ad-hoc committee to study the school food service program.
Member Johnston moved to approve the Iowa County Sources of Strength MOU and the motion carried by roll call 7-0. Member Skelding moved to approve open enrollment in and out, and that motion also passed 7-0. Member Heisner moved to create an ad-hoc committee to explore ways to improve food service nutrition and participation; that motion passed with six yes votes and one abstention (Member Harris).
Why it matters: The MOU formalizes a partnership to support student well-being, open enrollment decisions affect student placements and enrollment counts, and creation of a food-service study committee signals the board's intent to address school meal quality and participation.
