Board approves e-learning plan and authorizes application for school safety grant
Summary
The board approved the District E-Learning Plan for 2025–27 and a motion to apply for the FY 2025 School Violence Prevention Program grant, which—if awarded—would pay for cameras, lighting, door-access controls and a safety platform; the board noted the grant is competitive.
The board approved two districtwide operational items: the District E-Learning Plan for 2025–27 and submission of an application for the FY 2025 School Violence Prevention Program grant.
The E-Learning Plan, required to conduct remote learning on snow-emergency days, passed by voice vote (motion by M. Bibler; seconded by A. Drinkall; 6 ayes). The board also voted to submit the grant application; Superintendent Tim Schurman told members the grant is competitive and, if awarded, the funds would be used for new security cameras, parking-lot lighting, a door-access control system, and safety platform costs. The vote to apply was approved by voice vote with six ayes.
No specific grant budget or application attachments were presented in the public minutes; the superintendent emphasized the competitive nature of the application and did not guarantee award.
