Summary

The board heard a proposal to pay table/clock/scoreboard workers at events (estimated at about $9 per worker) to improve reliability; presenters reported about $19,000 net revenue from concessions last year and suggested a possible stipend for the concessions manager, but the board noted the issue intersects union negotiations.

The board discussed athletics operations, volunteer coaches and a proposal to pay game workers for scorekeeping, clock and other table duties. The presenter said many peer districts pay their workers and estimated “in my proposal, it would cost us right around about like $9” per worker; the goal is to increase reliability when volunteers cancel and reduce last‑minute scrambles.

The presenter reported concession operations generated about $19,000 net this year and proposed a stipend for a staff member who manages concessions. Board members cautioned that any plan to pay regularly for concession operations or to reclassify duties may intersect with union negotiations and instructed staff to consult the union and the superintendent before taking personnel action. The board did not take final action on pay or stipend at this meeting.
