Loss of athletic trainer raises fundraising questions during Durand public comment
Summary
During public comment and reports, speakers and school officials flagged the district’s loss of an athletic trainer and discussed whether Athletic Boosters should fundraise to help restore the position; Superintendent Knapp and Mr. Moore addressed the issue in reports.
Community members used the public comment period May 12 to raise concerns about the district’s loss of an athletic trainer and asked whether the Athletic Boosters should continue fundraising to support hiring in the future. The minutes record the comment but do not name individual public speakers.
The minutes state: “PUBLIC COMMENTS • Discussion on loss of Athletic Trainer and whether Athletic Boosters should still fundraise to help pay for a future trainer.” Later in the Superintendent and Principal reports, Superintendent Knapp and Mr. Moore discussed pursuing a new athletic trainer as part of athletics planning. The board did not vote on hiring an athletic trainer at the meeting; the minutes record discussion and follow-up attention but no formal direction to hire or a funding commitment.
