Summary

Superintendent Brian Rentsch introduced real‑estate and auction representatives and outlined plans to offer the Claymont Intermediate building to any community or chartered non‑public school first, then pursue sale before winter with an auction timeline of at least 60 days.

Superintendent Brian Rentsch told the board that The Barnett Realtors and Cronebaugh Auction expressed interest in representing the district in the sale of the Claymont Intermediate building. He said state and local procedures require the district to offer the property first to any community school or chartered non‑public school in the community; the minutes indicate there are none in the district.

Rentsch said the district would like to complete a sale before winter to avoid carrying costs and noted that an auction timeline would be at least 60 days. The board did not record a formal motion to sell at this meeting; the discussion was presented as a staff‑led planning item with vendors introduced to the board.
