Last night’s board meeting was relatively uneventful. There were two discussions that might be of interest:
Debt refinancing opportunity
The board heard a proposal to restructure approximately $13.3 million of debt in order to save an estimated $156,000 over the next decade. The board will vote on a specific resolution on the issue at its next meeting. Watch here; documents available here.
Finding nurses
The board approved contracts with a half dozen different nursing service agencies. The administration explained that the number of contracts reflects the difficulty in identifying qualified nurses when needed. There are a variety of state and federal mandates that require the district to provide nursing services to students. Watch here; the contracts themselves are available here.
The next board meet will be held Monday, July 8th.
