Board approves funding for second first responder at West Oaks High School
Summary
After a presentation citing athletic participation and multiple practice sites, the board approved funding for a second first responder at West Oaks High School for the fall and winter seasons, at a cost the district presented as $2,100 (fall) and $1,050 (winter).
Board members moved and approved placing the request for an additional first responder at West Oaks High School onto the action agenda. The request came after a letter and presentation explaining that the number of student-athletes and the use of multiple practice locations create a need for additional medical coverage during fall and winter seasons. "They are asking for consideration from the board of education to approve and provide a salary for that position," the presenter said.
During discussion, the district presented the cost as "$2,100 in the fall and $1,050 in the winter." Board members asked if the district could absorb the cost and voted to approve funding by motion and voice vote; the item was moved to the action agenda and approved as action item G.
