Summary

Superintendent Nancy Popp said required steps have been completed to comply with the EPS grant for electric buses, the annual audit is complete pending report delivery, stair treads were replaced, and truancy meetings with county superintendents and law enforcement are ongoing.

Superintendent Nancy Popp reported several operational items at the Oct. 14 meeting. She said stair tread replacement work was completed when staff and students were not in the building and that "necessary steps have been completed to follow the requirements of the EPS grant that we received for the electric buses." The annual audit is complete and the district hopes to receive the auditor’s report before the end of the year.

Popp also reported ongoing truancy meetings with county superintendents and county law enforcement to review the truancy process; she and Principal Amanda Kraus attended a village board meeting about the same issue. These items were presented as informational updates; the board did not take specific action on the grant compliance or audit at the meeting.

Why it matters: EPS grant compliance is a precondition for electric-bus procurement or reimbursement; truancy discussions involve coordination with county-level partners and may affect district attendance processes.
