District reports heating failure and classroom flooding; insurer relief threshold noted
Summary
Director of Operations told trustees of heating failures and a water-pipe flood at Priest River Elementary; staff relocated students and pursued insurer relief for items covered above $140,000.00.
The board heard from Director of Operations Ryan Carruth about recent emergencies at Priest River Elementary, including failures in heating infrastructure and a water pipe that caused flooding in a second-grade classroom. Carruth said students were moved to other classrooms to continue learning during the incidents.
Carruth reported he worked with the district’s insurance provider regarding relief for losses where coverage exceeded $140,000.00. Trustee Paul Turco praised staff response during the emergencies. The minutes do not record specific repair contracts or dollar estimates beyond the insurer threshold; the board did not vote on emergency procurement at this meeting.
