Board hears athletic staffing requests; coach-pay equalization tabled, football fundraiser deferred
Summary
Trustees discussed adding girls' wrestling coach positions and equalizing 7th/8th coach stipends (~$6,000 cost) but tabled pay changes pending budget review. A proposed football fireworks fundraiser was discussed and board asked organizers to return with legal/vendor details.
Middle-school coaches Brady Trenkle and Grant Killoy urged the board to budget a girls' wrestling coach for each middle school. Trustees directed Business Manager Daryl Kent to review available funds before the board acts. Advocates also asked that 7th/8th coach stipends be equalized across sports; the board estimated the additional cost would be approximately $6,000 and tabled the item until budget availability is confirmed.
Sherm Blauser presented an amended Minico Football fundraiser plan to operate a fireworks stand this summer. Trustees expressed concerns about minors' involvement and vendor arrangements; the board asked Mr. Blauser to consult the existing supplier and provide legal and operational details for a future decision.
