Board approves art teacher FTE, memorial fund awards and student pool passes
Summary
The Helix board approved adding a 1.0 licensed FTE for K–12 art instruction, awarded three Helix Memorial Fund grants (largest $1,000), and approved paying for student pool passes; motions carried unanimously.
The Helix School Board approved adding an additional 1.0 licensed full‑time equivalent to create a K–12 art teaching position after Superintendent Brad Bixler told the board students expressed interest and the district budget can accommodate the hire. The motion to add the FTE was made by Friday Bracher and seconded by Bobby Corey, and it carried unanimously (Yea:4, Nay:0, Absent:1).
The board also reviewed Helix Memorial Fund applications and voted to award $1,000 to Applicant F and $500 each to Applicants E and A. Additionally, the board approved providing student pool passes to Helix students as a family support initiative. Board members asked administration to identify funding sources and to move forward with hiring and distribution details this summer.
