The River Trails School District 26 Board of Education voted Oct. 8 to approve an administrator retirement contract for Daniel Whisler.

Johnson voted no.
Johnson recorded that she "was not in agreement with the terms of the contract," and Board member Robert Rognstad urged the district to examine healthcare coverage for future administrative contracts.
