The USD #505 Chetopa-St. Paul Board of Education convened on Aug. 10 in St. Paul and moved through routine business, including approval of the agenda and consent items and several personnel and funding actions.
Shelby Spielbusch moved to approve the agenda and later moved approval of the consent agenda, both motions seconded by Brock Aday and adopted 5-0. Superintendent Bobbi Williams reported that SEK Interlocal negotiations were settled with a 2.3% increase and presented technology and principals' reports on subscription renewals and projected enrollment. Williams recommended that the district "continue with the existing plan and use reserves to enter the pool and mitigate risk" regarding a new health insurance premium; the board took no action because no plan change was proposed.
