Superintendent reports enrollment growth, $6 million modernization grant application, staffing changes and levy year
Summary
Superintendent reported enrollment rose slightly during the year, a second small modernization grant application for an additional $6,000,000 was submitted, several staff hires and reassignments were listed, and the district reminded the board that this is a levy year.
Superintendent (Speaker 3) gave the superintendent report covering end-of-year events, staffing, facilities and finance. He thanked staff for graduation ceremonies and the board for hosting an end-of-year barbecue, and outlined recent staff hires and reassignments across grade levels.
The district submitted a second small modernization grant application seeking an additional $6,000,000 to move the district onto the state funding queue, though Superintendent (Speaker 3) said he did not expect funding anytime soon. He reported enrollment increased from about 5.67 to just over 5.74 (units stated in the transcript), and announced a proposed high-school lunch-price increase from $3.75 to $3.85 to reduce a roughly $0.50 loss per lunch. He also noted gym refinishing dates (elementary old gym July 22; high school July 29) and reminded the board that this is a levy year; the district will send a community newsletter with levy cost details.
