III. COMMUNICATIONS
A. Recognition of Visitors / Public Comments:
B. Board Members
C. Staff-Shannon Reid gave the board an update on the projects within the district. The summer help is working out great. He has checked the lights in front of the elementary building. It would be costly to repair the wire which goes through the asbestos. Solar lighting would be more feasible. The carpet installed in Mrs. Thomas' classroom is complete. The ballasts for the softball lights are not in yet to complete the project. Mr. Reid is confident he could do the work to install the bathrooms at the softball field. The city said a septic tank would be best, but there is a possibility that a hook up to the city’s sewer could work.
D. Administrative Reports
Mr. Johnson: Working on SY24 schedules
Mrs. Harrelson: Additional building updates were given to the board: The electrical and roofing at Wells is complete. The ballasts for the softball lights should arrive first of August. Fans will be installed on the gym floor. The band trailer may need to be painted before adding graphics. The Revenue and Expenditure Reports were reviewed for the year. Board Goals for SY 24 were finalized. There was a FOIA request for all employees. Morgan Nelson is the High Impact Tutoring Initiative Coordinator. The program had nine students this summer. The ROE said there is no need for a building permit to install softball restrooms in the existing concession stand, but ADA guidelines must be followed.
